Is there a reason they have to be two separate drive volumes? You could 
use LVM to pool the capacity on the two physical drives and have all 
your files 1973-2012 accessible through one point.
If there is a reason they have to be on two separate drive volumes, 
then you could create symbolic links from one drive to another. If you 
created symbolic links for 1972-2001 in the same location as 2002-2012, 
for example, then you could access 1973-2012 from one place 
transparently.
